Blogger and blog dismissed and blocked

Whether it is cause for shame or pride it is difficult to know.

This blogger was dismissed/removed/re-assigned from the Dominican Community in St Saviour's Dublin because of his 'opinions and attitude'.

This blog has now been blocked from a country. The country will not be named out of deference for the internal affairs of that country.


It is interesting that in both cases those who did the dismissing and blocking are right wing, reactionary groups. In one case akin to the German defence minister who resigned yesterday. Karl Theodor Freiherr zu Guttenberg pretended he stood for 'old values'. He cheated and lied. He was outed.
